Abstract :
Mobility stands for shift, change and movement. The change may be of a place or from one position to another. When we prefix 'social' along with mobility it would imply that people or individual occupying a social position, move to another position or status. On mobility Sorokin was the first sociologist who wrote a book "Social and Cultural Mobility". He was the opinion that there is no society which is closed and no society which is completely open. As defined by Barber,"social mobility refers to movement, either upward or downward between higher or lower social classes; or more precisely, movement between one relatively fulltime, functionally significant social role and another that is evaluated as either higher or lower. In this sense, mobility "provides the individual with more or less of the benefits which his economy and society have to offer."
